That word is: genocide.
IF we manage to survive–as a species–the attempts of accolytes of The Church of Anthropogenic Global Warming to kill off humanity, then
…what historians will definitely wonder about in future centuries is how deeply flawed logic, obscured by shrewd and unrelenting propaganda, actually enabled a coalition of powerful special interests to convince nearly everyone in the world that CO2 from human industry was a dangerous, planet destroying toxin. It will be remembered as the greatest mass delusion in the history of the world – that CO2, the life of plants, was considered for a time to be a deadly poison.
Thus speaks a prophet. The problems that accolytes of The Church of Anthropogenic Global Warming seek to introduce into the world economy and into the biosphere in general are manifold. If their efforts continue to be successful, not only would they contribute to global cooling–a disaster waiting to happen… that seems to “want” to happen anyway–but worldwide famine, a disaster for humanity, if not of the extinction magnitude some eco-freaks seem to desire, at least dire indeed.
And the Obamassiah wants to declare CO2–essential to plant growth–a “Dangerous Pollutant”. The first, most obvious, result would of course be economic devastation of coal producers (any voters in Pennsylvania paying attention?), but not end there by a long shot.
“I (Obama) was the first to call for a 100% auction on the cap and trade system, which means that every unit of carbon or greenhouse gases emitted would be charged to the polluter. That will create a market in which whatever technologies are out there that are being presented, whatever power plants that are being built, that they would have to meet the rigors of that market and the ratcheted down caps that are being placed, imposed every year.
“So if somebody wants to build a coal-powered plant, they can; it’s just that it will bankrupt them because they’re going to be charged a huge sum for all that greenhouse gas that’s being emitted.”
Bankrupt plants using coal to produce energy in order to cut down on releasing a gas that–IF the Anthropogenic Global Warmists are right (and there’s little evidence they are)–may help avert or ameliorate a coming ice age and that is essential to plant growth. Smart. Real smart. If your goal is the short term economic devastation of our society and your long term goal is poverty, famine and disease.
Just one more piece of the puzzle that reveals anyone who would vote for Obama to be a short-sighted idiot, fool, slacker, poltroon or thief. Or all the above.
